Can you post the article I can't get past the pop ups, thanks
From the article: Colleges across the country are girding for the demographic cliff of fewer young people enrolling due to a decades-long, nationwide decline in birth rates. Because of this, Red Rocks Community College — with campuses in Arvada and Lakewood — is investing in its adult learner population, degree-seekers often overlooked in traditional higher education settings.
This is great news. I'm an adult learner and about to re-enter college, and I'm glad more and more colleges are taking my group seriously.
That’s exciting, what are you going back to study?
